ABOUT THE ROLE

As Financial Controller Lead, you will be a strategic finance partner to the executive team, helping drive data-informed decisions that support rapid growth and operational excellence.

You will work closely with leaders across Product, Sales, Marketing, Operations, Tech and People to translate complex financial and operational data into actionable recommendations. Beyond traditional financial controlling, you will help build scalable financial processes, improve reporting automation, evaluate strategic investments, and support board reporting, and business expansion initiatives.

This is a highly visible role for someone who enjoys combining financial rigor with an entrepreneurial mindset and thrives in an environment where priorities evolve quickly and every decision has a measurable impact.

  • Partner with Product, Commercial and Tech teams to evaluate business cases and resource allocation.
  • Support board presentations, and due diligence processes.
  • Drive continuous improvement of financial planning, reporting, and analytics through automation and scalable processes.
  • Collaborate with Accounting to ensure accurate month-end close, financial reporting, and compliance with internal controls.
  • Evaluate SaaS and technology business metrics, including ARR, MRR, CAC, LTV, churn, retention, and unit economics, where applicable.
  • Support strategic initiatives, including international expansion, partnerships, M&A, and new business models.
  • Build a culture of financial accountability while enabling fast and informed decision-making across the organization.

WHAT YOU BRING

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business Administration, or a related discipline.
  • 7+ years of experience in Business Controlling, FP&A, Strategic Finance, or Corporate Finance, preferably in a high-growth technology company or start-up.
  • Strong financial modeling, forecasting, and business analysis skills.
  • Experience partnering with senior executives and cross-functional leadership teams.
  • Deep understanding of business drivers, or digital business models.
  • Advanced Excel and financial modeling capabilities.
  • Fluency using AI tools.
  • Experience with ERP, FP&A, and BI platforms (for example MS Dynamics, NetSuite, Oracle, SAP, Workday Adaptive Planning, Power BI, Looker, Tableau, or similar).
  • Excellent analytical thinking with the ability to transform data into strategic business insights.
  • Strong communication and presentation skills, with confidence presenting to executives, investors, and board members.
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-changing, ambiguous environment with a hands-on approach.
  • Demonstrated ability to build scalable financial processes in a growing organization.
  • Strong project management and stakeholder management skills.
